Well i thought i would share my up/down speeds with you all and comment on how it helps on gaming. In Australia we suffer from pretty crappy isp's and infrastructure to support high speed broadband and internet so i was pretty happy when i moved into my service residence in Darwin and found out it was in a 'smart community' which meant fibre optic cable connections throughout the house. Well i signed up to the highest speed plan which is 200gb at 100/25mb per second for around $60/month. I tried wireless and cable connections to my router which plugs straight into a ethernet port in the wall of a bedroom and got the following speeds.
Which is better than 97% of aussie connections. This has had a marked improvement in my gaming capabilities and also game play as now i seem to be killing players easier and with far fewer deaths.
Anyways i would love to see what some of our other friends around the world are getting through their isp's as i know australia is way behind in the isp world. _________________________________________________________ http://www.360-hq.com - ENFORCER
